Thank you for this new build :)! Seems choppy video recording is history now...

But I'm afraid I have to report another annoying bug about video :

Automatic exposure seems to be deactivated while recording.
Moving from a bright to a darker place results in something almost black, and the opposite results in overexposed scene.

I'm uploading new version. I hope most demanded fixes and features are in place now. I'll switch to ICS development now, so don't expect any significant changes for gingerbread (at least in near future).

can't wait for ics:eek:

you are awesome,man!
edit:new version works perfect. big thanks:D

Does this mean you are stopping development for milestone 2 or developing a ics ROM for milestone 2?

Are you sure choppy video is gone? I haven't do anything about it yet, though it could be a general CM issue.

As for exposure, please submit it to the tracker.

Tezet, are you considering to use one of the new gingerbread kernels?

I'd like to try the new gingerbread stock rom, but if it prevents me to go back to your CM, I won't...

Guys, I've been following the forum and it seems that Motorola's Kernel Stock GB GB is not a kernel, a user reported that the ROM has not been updated to 2.6.35, I believe that Motorola should have done something with the lock that neither they are managing to get, so they should have wrapped both GB ROM release.

    2) Boot into recovery
    3) Optionally: create a backup of your data
    4) Choose Install zip from sdcard -> Choose zip from sdcard and select downloaded ZIP file.
    5) Optionally: install Google Apps the same way
    6) Wipe data/factory reset
    7) Wipe cache partition

    5) Reboot and enjoy :)

    As you can see, the update from the stock ROM requires a complete wipe, so be sure to backup your important data!

    I've updated the ROM. It will most probably be the last version on Froyo kernel. Next versions will bring support for EU GB kernel users.

    To keep CM7 alive: updated to latest CM7 + added OTA updater.
